Fred McGriff Posted March 9, 2009 Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 catholicism is dominating the non-secular population, woot beneboi said: ok, so in 19 years christianity has fallen 10% in america i guess i just dont see the point you are making by posting this? well in 9 years the percentage has dropped by a margin that is smaller than the poll's margin of error, so secularism is on the rise.

Guest glasse Posted March 9, 2009 Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 "Americans are slowly becoming less Christian... The challenge to Christianity does not come from other world religions or new religious movements, but rather from a rejection of all organized religions," i don't think you need a poll to observe this happening and it's not just america.

Guest Drahken Posted March 9, 2009 Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 It would only make sense that secularism would be on the rise from our founding to now given the 'melting pot' ideology and nature of our constantly evolving ethnic background.

Guest EDGEY Posted March 9, 2009 Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 I just thought it was interesting that there is roughly 30 million less christians in the country, and given the course of the decline, you could venture a guess that is generational, and possibly cumulative - here's to another 20 years of decline!
